Tempers "Flare" In Champions League Play

((HT: UEFA/youtube))

The HQ is well aware that the European version of football is, about, eleventy-billion times worse when it comes to fan misbehavior during a contest...

Football fans here may get in fights in the stands and there is the rare instance of pulling a weapon. But never do American fans set arenas on fire...

The fans in St. Petersburg did that twice in their UEFA match against Apoel Nicosia. Once per half was a nice average...

Here's how everything broke down in the 56h minute...


The officials took the players off the pitch, and the game eventually resumed with the game ending in a scoreless tie. That result assures Nicosia makes it to the next round...

Well done, Russia...
